Product Description

The Vu Plus is for those not needing a full-blown smartphone, but with an emphasis on texters and social communicators. The Vu Plus updates the previous Vu with a slide-out QWERTY keyboard, a higher resolution (3 MP) camera, an upgrade to capacitive touch from resistive, and faster 3G data transfer. AT&T’s MediaFlo® Live TV service is still available, as well as video recording & sharing, and stereo Bluetooth® capability. On board memory is expandable to 16GB with a SDmicro card. There are three home screens available to a user - as with the earlier model – ready for customizing with Widgets, App short-cuts, and contact Favorites. Added too is a Background Music Mode which allows music to play while taking a picture or shooting a video. LG claims 3 hours of active use and 288 hours of standby operation on the 3.7V/950mAh Li-Ion Polymer battery.
